Artist: Michael Johnson (Newlyn Copper Works) Title: Copper Bowl 1Size: 100 x 35 x 29.5cmMedium: Baulk & Newlyn CopperBorn in 1963 in the UK, Michael spent his early years in North Africa, the Middle East and Asia. He emigrated with his family to Australia at the age of ten, there he completed his education to degree level and subsequently established a career in the performing arts. Parallel to this career he began to develop what had been a childhood passion, working with copper. In his twenties this led to commissions and exhibition work and on retiring from the performing arts he took up metal work full time.An opportunity to further develop his metal working skills saw him return to the UK to work with his uncle, Terry English, an internationally regarded armourer. Subsequent films Michael worked on included First Knight, Batman and Robin, Joan of Arc, King Arthur and Pirates of the Caribbean 2+3. The skills for hand forming sheet metal work in the armoury paralleled those of the copper and silversmith.Working in the UK and abroad has allowed him to build on his skills as a craftsman in copper and in 2004 Michael established The Copper Works Newlyn. DISCLAIMER: The Porthleven baulk/harbour defence wood is made (on the whole) of Douglas Fir Pine. The actual date of the wood is unknown, the wood broke on the 5th February 2014 and after that was stored outdoors in the harbour yard. Wood is a natural product that responds to temperature and humidity variations by expanding and contracting. You are purchasing a natural product as seen and the Charity the Fishermen's Mission cannot be held responsible for any changes in the wood after the auction on the 18th March 2017.

9. ARTIST’S RESALE RIGHTS.

This levy is to be charged to the purchaser. In bidding, you accept that you will be charged in accordance with the terms of the Act. An artwork must sell for more than €1,000 to qualify for the levy. The law defines the price threshold in Euros and, because the exchange rate between the two currencies changes daily, the equivalent in Pounds Sterling is worked out according to the exchange rate on the date the artwork is sold. The threshold for the day will be announced at the beginning of the sale. The levy is 4% on up to 50,000 euros, 3% from 50,000-200,000 euros, 1% from 200,000-350,000 euros, 0.5% from 350,000-500,000 euros and 0.25% on a hammer price exceeding 500,000 euros. There is a cap of 12,500 euros payable on any one work. Please note: this scale is cumulative, which means that where the sale price is higher than the first threshold, the royalty on each portion of the price must be calculated accordingly and added together to arrive at the final sum. For example, take an artwork that sells for €210,000. The first €50,000 would achieve 4% (€2,000), the next 150,000 would achieve 3% (€4,500), and the final €10,000 would achieve 1% (€100). The total royalties due would be €6,600.
